BANGALORE:
A mob set on fire a Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) bus that knocked down a 16-year-old boy on Nagawara Road on Wednesday.
The police said that around 10 a.m., the BMTC bus (route no. 290C) hit Mohammed Tabrez while he was crossing Nagavara Road.
As Tabrez lay dead in a pool of blood, residents of the area and passers-by threw stones at the bus and set it on fire.
Tension
As the crowd gathered at the accident spot and tried to block traffic, there was tension for some time.
Senior police officials rushed to the spot, pacified the crowd and dispersed it. A fire tender put out the fire.
The traffic police have arrested bus driver Ravi and registered a case. Meanwhile, the Banaswadi police have registered a case of rioting against those who torched the bus.
Boy knocked down
In another incident, a 15-year-old boy was killed after a BMTC bus hit his scooter in Wilson Garden police station limits on Wednesday morning.
The police gave the name of the dead as Gautham, a SSLC student of BHS High School in Jayanagar and son of Venkoba Rao, a resident of Wilson Garden.
